This study re-reads the First to Sixth Economic, Social, and Cultural Development Plans of the Islamic Republic of Iran to examine the pattern of representation of citizenship rights in the country’s major policy documents. Adopting a qualitative–quantitative approach with a dominant qualitative orientation, the study draws on an integrated theoretical framework based on Marshall, Turner, Taylor, and Kymlicka in order to analyze the civil, political, social, economic, and cultural dimensions of citizenship rights. The data were collected through content analysis of the development plans and examined through a priori categorization, coding, frequency measurement, and percentage analysis. The findings show that attention to citizenship rights in the development plans has not followed a coherent and balanced pattern, and significant differences exist among its various dimensions. In most plans, social rights, particularly education, welfare, employment, and social justice, have received the greatest emphasis, whereas civil, political, cultural, and economic rights have appeared in a more limited and uneven manner. The findings also indicate that the evolution of the plans does not fully correspond to Marshall’s expected evolutionary path or Turner’s model of multidimensional integration. Moreover, the apparent growth of the cultural dimension reflects the consolidation of an official identity rather than genuine recognition of cultural diversity. Overall, citizenship rights are represented in Iran’s development plans in a fragmented, discontinuous, and unstable policy pattern.
